Character Builder: Multiple Weapons

[JoeGKushner]

Okay... I've got a ranger. I equip with two sets of melee weapons, doesn't list the bow.

Equip with bow, doesn't list the two weapons.

?

I is a newbie with the old DDI so let me know where I'm going wrong here.

There's an option in the character sheet viewer that allows you to view all weapons. Alternative, right-click on the attack power card and select which weapons you want it to work with.

Cheers!

Thanks Merric, that helped me out too. I had written it off as a software limitation.

You can also do that with power cards. And you can modify several fields of the character sheet by using their right-click menus.

Thanks Merric. I haven't experiemented too much with it so it's nice to get it right with some help.

I too didn't know about this functionality. Thanks for the tip!

I sometimes get huge text on the power cards, and if I turn off the weapon by right clicking the text gets back to normal. This is the most frustrating part on the CB for me, bad text scaling.

Excellent tips. Maybe there needs to be a thread for "Cool DDI Character Builder tips and tricks".

I just don't know any to share.

Holy crap this is useful! The CB even better than I thought, and now the only "problem" is that Wizards needs to have a better way of letting people know these options are here. Thanks!

It's something that was added when we went to the full version; they noted it in the list of upgrades that came with it, but I guess most people skipped reading it!

Cheers!
